Scrappy Bargello Slide Show!

Yesterday’s class was held at the Good Will Fire Department buuilding…..up on the 3rd floor!

It was a terrific location, loads of light, lots of space and windows to look out of.

The day was rainy and drizzly much of the time --- so it was the perfect day to be inside and sewing…..We’d load up the elevator with everyone’s stuff….send it up to the 3rd floor, unload, and send it down again.

A Fish in the Fabric?!?

AHA! It hides the rotary cutter!

I thought this was so fun! It was originally intended as a pencil case for a school aged kid, but what a fun thing! And you’d definitely not LOSE your cutter if it was encased in a big pink fish!

This was a very fun filled fast paced workshop, and everyone got LOADS done! It was fun to see all the different fabrics, schemes, themes and colors ---

After class, it was a hurry hurry to meet up with a different guild for dinner, and then a lecture for them --- we spent the evening with the Brandywine Quilters! I literally fell into bed by the time we got home ---

Today is an extremely busy day too. I’ve got a lecture this morning ---followed by a lunch, and immediately after I’m heading back to Virginia where I’ll spend the next couple of days with the Quilters of Centreville, VA!

They are all so pretty! Bargello is one I would look at then walk a mile around so I wouldn't get too close, TOO HARD ! But,the pics of these girls projects looks so easy! I guess that's why you are called instructor/teacher. :o I will attend one of your classes someday. The closest you're going to be to my neck of the woods anytime soon is 3 hours away in McKinney, TX and the classes are full!

Oh Bonnie this is a quilt I have to make. I love that some of them are planned and others are scrappey. Girl take care of yourself. I wish I could have gotten in one of the classes in Va. I tried an all were full.

Thanks for sharing - the ladies made great progress. I especially love the Civil War version. I have an incomplete Bargello in a box "somewhere"....the photos inspire me to find it and work on it...hahaha.

They are beautiful! I noticed you switched off messages from other people on Facebook, but I recently finished my floral bargello if you remember. There are a few pics on my blog: www.busyfingersbusylife.blogspot.com thank you so much for the pattern, I've really enjoyed making this bargello!
